Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable an LED head to be prevented from emitting detrimental light and protected against chipping at the alignment of chips and printing failure by a method wherein a light blocking film is formed on the surface of an LED array chip so as to cover the cut area before a final process where the LED array chip is cut off. CONSTITUTION:A groove 14 is provided to an LED array chip 2 along a dicing line (a), and a light blocking film 13 is made to grow (b). In succession, lastly the LED array chip 2 is cut off (c) through dicing. That is, the light blocking film 13 is provided covering the cut area of the groove 14.

In the conventional LED head described above, in addition to the light generated from the exposed surface of the constituent LED array chip, the LED
There is light leakage from the horizontal direction of the D array chip, that is, from the cut surface of the LED array chip. This horizontally leaking light is reflected particularly at the seam where the LED array chips are lined up, exposing the photoreceptor and causing printing defects, and the shape of the reflected portion in this area is different from the direction of the photoreceptor. This has the disadvantage that even weak light increases the possibility of printing defects.
